- Propose merging Category:Scottish surnames to Category:Surnames of Scottish origin
- Nominator's rationale: Total category-fork. They don't even link to each other, and both are in mostly the same parent categories. Individual surname articles are randomly categorized into one, the other, or sometimes both. The merge would be consistent with Category:Irish surnames being a cat.-redirect to Category:Surnames of Irish origin. I'm not sure why we're preferring the more longwinded name (that fewer people are likely to pick by guessing at it) but we seem to be; the obvious parent cats. are Category:Surnames of British Isles origin and Category:Surnames of European origin, with similarly named subcats., though there may be a few other stragglers to round up. — SMcCandlish ☏ ¢ 😼 18:09, 10 December 2023 (UTC)

- Nominator's rationale: It's unclear what "animal abilities" even means in this context, making this a
WP:SUBJECTIVECAT. In its current form, it is confusing. The best thing to do is merge to
Category:Animal superheroes, while purging the morphing subcategory and non-superheroes.
ᴢxᴄᴠʙɴᴍ (
ᴛ) 09:34, 11 November 2023 (UTC)
- Oppose merger. Most of the characters listed under
Category:Fictional characters with animal abilities are not animals, they're people with animalistic abilities, nor are they even all necessarily superheroes either.
AHI-3000 (
talk) 10:39, 11 November 2023 (UTC)
- There is no firm definition of what an "animalistic ability" is, making it subjective. While plant abilities are pretty clear-cut, humans are capable of things that may be described as "animalistic" but are not necessarily related to animals. For example, one could say a character who flies using a jetpack is "bird-like" but may be unrelated to birds. This is why I think such a category is totally untenable.
- If they have animal morphing abilities, then the below mentioned shapeshifter category will work. Not every single thing needs a specific category. ᴢxᴄᴠʙɴᴍ ( ᴛ) 12:14, 11 November 2023 (UTC)

- For the record, I support upmerging Category:Fictional characters with flora or fauna abilities as this is a redundant category layer with only two subcategories. Marcocapelle ( talk) 22:39, 23 November 2023 (UTC)
- Comment There's a bit of overlap going on here. Here's what I got:
- Category:Fictional characters who can control animals
- Category:Fictional characters who can communicate with animals
- Already in an existing subcat
- Other
- Animal Man — Added to Category:Fictional characters who can copy superpowers
- The Cat Girl (comics) — In Category:Fictional characters with superhuman senses; added to Category:Fictional characters who can move at superhuman speeds
- Vixen (comics) — Added to Category:Fictional characters who can copy superpowers
We could start sorting superheroes and supervillains by theme, as with the existing Category:United States-themed superheroes — most of the characters here have animal themes, but their abilities are varied. – LaundryPizza03 ( d c̄) 10:33, 29 November 2023 (UTC)
- I want ahead and created both Category:Fictional characters who can control animals and Category:Fictional characters who can communicate with animals. AHI-3000 ( talk) 08:41, 2 December 2023 (UTC)
- I also support your suggestion regarding animal-themed characters; we can create Category:Animal-themed superheroes and Category:Animal-themed supervillains. Though the scope of these categories would be rather broad, as Batman and Spider-Man are both technically animal-themed heroes, but Batman doesn't actually have literal animal powers. AHI-3000 ( talk) 08:41, 2 December 2023 (UTC)
- Oppose merger per AHI-3000's. These type of characters are not necessarily heroes. Dimadick ( talk) 11:55, 3 December 2023 (UTC)
- Keep Category:Fictional characters with animal abilities, merge Category:Fictional characters with flora or fauna abilities - The former is a perfectly valid category as User:AHI-3000 suggested. The later is an unneeded WP:SUPERCAT. (Oinkers42) ( talk) 16:37, 8 December 2023 (UTC)

Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/One-off vehicle) Not to mention of its vagueness, I am presented with a category that doesn't know what it wants to be. We have a mishmash of film and TV cars, custom cars, coachbuilts (custom cars for rich people), promo cars, concept cars, speed record cars and racecars, especially some from an era when individual example is not uncommon.

- The Military Merit Cross (Mecklenburg-Schwerin) was given out by the Mecklenburg-Schwerin division of the German Empire from 1848 to 1918, although the vast majority of recipients here are royalty or military leaders from other areas of Germany. The biography articles, like Ludwig Freiherr von und zu der Tann-Rathsamhausen and Helmuth von Moltke the Elder, generally mention this award in passing with other honours so it doesn't seem defining. There was only a partial list in the article so I expanded it for any reader interested in the topic. - RevelationDirect ( talk) 01:53, 10 December 2023 (UTC)

- Propose merging Category:Scottish surnames to Category:Surnames of Scottish origin
- Nominator's rationale: Total category-fork. They don't even link to each other, and both are in mostly the same parent categories. Individual surname articles are randomly categorized into one, the other, or sometimes both. The merge would be consistent with Category:Irish surnames being a cat.-redirect to Category:Surnames of Irish origin. I'm not sure why we're preferring the more longwinded name (that fewer people are likely to pick by guessing at it) but we seem to be; the obvious parent cats. are Category:Surnames of British Isles origin and Category:Surnames of European origin, with similarly named subcats., though there may be a few other stragglers to round up. — SMcCandlish ☏ ¢ 😼 18:09, 10 December 2023 (UTC)

- Nominator's rationale: It's unclear what "animal abilities" even means in this context, making this a
WP:SUBJECTIVECAT. In its current form, it is confusing. The best thing to do is merge to
Category:Animal superheroes, while purging the morphing subcategory and non-superheroes.
ᴢxᴄᴠʙɴᴍ (
ᴛ) 09:34, 11 November 2023 (UTC)
- Oppose merger. Most of the characters listed under
Category:Fictional characters with animal abilities are not animals, they're people with animalistic abilities, nor are they even all necessarily superheroes either.
AHI-3000 (
talk) 10:39, 11 November 2023 (UTC)
- There is no firm definition of what an "animalistic ability" is, making it subjective. While plant abilities are pretty clear-cut, humans are capable of things that may be described as "animalistic" but are not necessarily related to animals. For example, one could say a character who flies using a jetpack is "bird-like" but may be unrelated to birds. This is why I think such a category is totally untenable.
- If they have animal morphing abilities, then the below mentioned shapeshifter category will work. Not every single thing needs a specific category. ᴢxᴄᴠʙɴᴍ ( ᴛ) 12:14, 11 November 2023 (UTC)

- The Cat Girl (comics) — In Category:Fictional characters with superhuman senses; added to Category:Fictional characters who can move at superhuman speeds

We could start sorting superheroes and supervillains by theme, as with the existing Category:United States-themed superheroes — most of the characters here have animal themes, but their abilities are varied. – LaundryPizza03 ( d c̄) 10:33, 29 November 2023 (UTC)
- I want ahead and created both Category:Fictional characters who can control animals and Category:Fictional characters who can communicate with animals. AHI-3000 ( talk) 08:41, 2 December 2023 (UTC)
- I also support your suggestion regarding animal-themed characters; we can create Category:Animal-themed superheroes and Category:Animal-themed supervillains. Though the scope of these categories would be rather broad, as Batman and Spider-Man are both technically animal-themed heroes, but Batman doesn't actually have literal animal powers.

- Keep Category:Fictional characters with animal abilities, merge Category:Fictional characters with flora or fauna abilities - The former is a perfectly valid category as User:AHI-3000 suggested. The later is an unneeded WP:SUPERCAT. (Oinkers42) ( talk) 16:37, 8 December 2023 (UTC)

- The Military Merit Cross (Mecklenburg-Schwerin) was given out by the Mecklenburg-Schwerin division of the German Empire from 1848 to 1918, although the vast majority of recipients here are royalty or military leaders from other areas of Germany. The biography articles, like Ludwig Freiherr von und zu der Tann-Rathsamhausen and Helmuth von Moltke the Elder, generally mention this award in passing with other honours so it doesn't seem defining.
